Projectile Motion and Quadratic Functions I. ASSESSSMENT TASK OVERVIEW & PURPOSE: The student will examine the path of a Projectile and explain the Motion using a Quadratic function. Neglecting air resistance, projectiles follow the path of a parabola in nature. II. UNIT AUTHOR: Adam Keith, Gate City High School, Scott County Schools III. COURSE: Algebra I IV. CONTENT STRAND: Equations and Inequalities, Functions V. OBJECTIVES: The student will be able to: solve Quadratic equations algebraically and graphically solve real-world problems involving equations and systems of equations investigate and analyze Quadratic Functions both algebraically and graphically make connections between and among multiple representations of Functions including concrete, verbal, numeric, graphic, and algebraic.
Students should also know how to find a quadratic function in vertex form and a knowledge of solving systems of equations in two variables. Introduction: Setting Up the Mathematical Task . In this activity, you will investigate the relationship between the path traveled by projectiles and quadratic functions.
